How does Google read SWFAddress deep paths?


SWFAddress claims that it is search-engine friendly, but how is one supposed to feed the deep-links into search engines like Google? Because in all my SWFAddress-powered websites, not a single deep-link shows up in Google.

Tried and failed methods:

  • In the hidden-HTML, a-href (hyperlink) to deep-links such as www.site.com/#/Topic1
  • In the XML sitemap, list down the deep-links

Tried and tested methods:

  • ?

Solution

  • Google doesn't index / store deep-linked URLs in any way.

    The Flash Search Player 9 itself does not retrieve / pass URLs to the Virtual User (search engine)
